Unfold


Life is a question ⁉️ I tell myself And begin to isolate my heart It's hard to know, what life's for. When everyone and everything is selfish and cruel. I begin to create theories on possibilities. I begin with this Listen is what I mean Let's begin like this Moves by me swiftly Fresh breeze I felt Easing my tension The days I feel sold The sound of beautiful voices I hear Within those sounds Is my one and only voice That's set's me free And changes my philosophy The moment I set loose I become as free as an eagle 🦅 When I hear that voice Nothing can bring me down My world becomes a fairytale where I'm the princess and the voice is my love spell Taking away that voice Breaks me The chains begin to hold me And I cannot see free My enemies and fears begin to roam free Without that voice I call my own I can never be whole. Dear to me as gold I begin to fold My world seems small when It's only me But when it's us I begin to unfold A story of love And stories untold
